Re: fault listener

[Scott Nichol]

I'll note two things:

1. If you can in your environment (e.g. it is not production), I suggest you use the 
nightly build of Apache SOAP (http://cvs.apache.org/dist/soap/nightly/2004-04-07/).  
This fixes several bugs, adds a few features, and in particular will give you more 
using exception information in the area you are having problems.

2. One of the issues in 2.3.1 is that you will get the kind of generic error you see 
below if you include whitespace in the name of the fault listener class or misspell 
the class.  For example, having the following in the deployment descriptor will cause 
the exception you are seeing

  <isd:faultListener>org.apache.soap.server.DOMFaultListener
  </isd:faultListener>

because there is whitespace in the class name.  Check your deployment descriptor.

Subject: fault listener


Hi there,

I have been testing some services with no faultListener at all, and everything
worked right. I have tryed DOMFaultListener, and it works ok too. But I
have a problem with ExceptionFaultListener. 

When there is no exception generated at the server side, it works fine.
But when there is an exception, I can't access to the Fault, because an
exception is generated on the client side, at the moment of invoking the
service (RPCCall.invoke(url.....). The exception message is the following:

[SOAPException: faultCode=SOAP-ENV:Protocol; msg=Unsupported response content
type &quot;text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1&quot;, must be: &quot;text/xml&quot;.
Response was:
